The Freehand Beryllium Diver Magnus Watch is quite the interesting timepiece from Angular Momentum. The watch itself looks like a steel-plated sundial.
The watch is made of Beryllium bronze and weighs about 350 grams, coming with a texturized rubber strap. The Freehand Beryllium Diver Magnus watch glows in blue and green, which gives it an extra little something special over all those other heavyweight watches out there.
Implications - Many consumers within today's society are seeking relief from the constant flow of hi-tech and modernly designed gadgets being introduced into the market. Such consumers may be experiencing feelings of nostalgia for products and items from the past that bear much simpler aesthetics. Businesses that are capable of providing consumers with functional products infused with vintage or classic styles will see big returns.
